(Not sure if this is the right place for this) but I’ve been seeing this videos of people that use an app (not sure which ones they use) and they take one image and use an outline of another to move and warp one photo to fit the other. It’s almost like the smudge tool except nothings smeared or blurred it’s only warped, I’m not sure how I could replicate this with gimp but I was wondering if anybody knew any tools/settings that could do this (I’ve been looking for a while) any infos appreciated

I figured out how to change the default unit of measurment from px to cm for a new image, but how do I do the same for an image I've copied from the net and pasted into gimp as new image (Ctrl, Shft + V)? When I go to resize for this, it's still in px?

Audio spectrum effect |

Hello everyone, some time ago I made an image with an audio spectrum effect, and my problem is that I can't remember what kind of filter I used. I want to know if you can help me to achieve the same effect, what I remember when I make the image was that the filter I used can fragment the image in a grid and the distance between every "cube", as a result of the grid, was configurable so I modify some values to get the effect I desire. To clarify, I just make some big lines with green color in the layer that I applied the audio spectrum effect. Here is the image I made:

8-bit vs 16-bit Precision, and Indexing |

Just a couple questions that I can't seem to find the answer for online, so I figured I would ask here.
Online, it says that editing a photo with 8-bit precision is easier on a computer's RAM, and reduces file size. I have no trouble with RAM usage, and I shoot a lot of my photos in 16-bit RAW format, so I edit photos with that. However, I'm VERY interested in the reduced file size.
It seems to me that if I edit a photo in 16-bit and then convert it to 8-bit precision after I'm done, it still makes it may smaller in size...and flipping between 16-bit and 8-bit via the history tab, I can't see an actual difference. Does anyone know what actually happens to the photo if I switch to the 8-bit precision after I'm done editing? And what's the difference between just using 8-bit precision and using indexed colors, since I can see a VERY visible difference if I index the colors as well.
I'd really like to know how much information I'm losing if I switch to 8-bit precision, without indexing, after I'm already done editing the original 16-bit photo.
Thanks!
Edit: Looking at the colorcube analysis, both the original 16-bit and converted 8-bit PNGs have the same amount of unique colors. Obviously, the indexed version only has 256. Does this mean that if I don't index, no actual visible information is lost by converting it to 8-bit?
